escaping a tsunami ♥

This is the writing I made for the pretend tsunami going to hit Gisborne.

Our goal was to right a persuasive piece on why we should be let into a car of four seats to escape the incoming tsunami. I may have been a bit aggressive but I think I made my point.

manaiakalani work

This is a video we made for another Manaiakalani lesson. We put it together using a software called WeVideo. It's a very easy software to use, mostly just drag and click. All though the music isn't very good and it puts on a very annoying watermark when you use it without buying premium, it's still useable.

manaiakalani work

This is the work we did for this Manaiakalani lesson. We made this using slides and a site called 

"Tall Tweets" and it turns the slides into a gif! You can customize settings, such as how long the slides show for and a lot more! I reccommend you check out the site, it's really easy to use.

samoan shoe design ♥

Here is the Manaiakalani work that we did! We made shoe designs based around our rugby world cup country teams. My team is Samoa, that is why the shoe is the colours that it is, as it is based on the flag.
I liked making the design! It as fun and we got chances to be creative with it.
I think I could work on doing the outline myself, as I was away and I used my friends polyline.

Here is the picture of me with the "shoes" on. I look bad in this picture but I didn't want to take another foot picture.

samoan logo ♥

This is the work we did for Manaiakalani based on our 2019 World Cup inquiry. The whole class was split up into 9 teams that were named after countries that are competing in the world cup. Here is the work I did!
 

maths quiz ♥

I enjoyed making the quiz! It's honestly really stupid but that's the point.
I thought it was hard to come up with a maths topic, so I just went with whatever.
I thought it was fun to design the slides, and get to come up with what came next.

science fair experiments ♥

This is the work for the school science fair I did with my friend, Melissa (her blog). We did it on making rainbow and colourful swirl patterns using skittles. You can read what we did and how we did it on the science board. 

matariki animation ♥

Today I was learning how to make animations frame by frame using a website called Brush Ninja. I enjoyed using the app to make the animation, as it was pretty simple and easy to understand. I found it hard to have to keep restarting frames over and over again. Also, I wish there was a colour wheel. My animation shows the nine Matariki stars slightly glistening in the night sky. Next time I would change the colours of the stars, as you couldn't see them twinkling as much as I would like. This blog post shows I am a smart learner. blogger.

museum visit ♥

This is a collage with pictures of our journey to the C Company Museum!

There, we learnt about early settlers and the timelines in which they came in. 

There was a remembrance hall type of thing with a bunch of soldiers pictures. Some of the people in my class were even related to them!

This blog post shows I am a Stepping Up Blogger!

stem lesson ♥

So far, I have only done one lesson in STEM, due to me being away, but this lesson was pretty cool. We used these things called Micro Bits, and with a website on a computer, you can program it to make flash these lights and play music with just a click of those two buttons in the GIF, or even shaking it!

My Moment In Time

This is my moment in time about seeing New Zealand from Young Nicks point of view.
We learnt this information on the heritage trail we went to.

a-z landmark ♥

This is the one of the A-Z slides that we had to do, this one is the letter C (town clock).
If you scan the QR code you can go to the slideshow with every letter of the alphabet relating to a landmark or place in Gisborne.

This is some work we did in Manaiakalani, which is actually a fridge magnet with a QR code and link to my blog!

My heart goes out to the victims of the Christchurch shooting and the families who have experienced losing someone to this tragedy.

the year 2019 ♥

Welcome to 2019

Hi, my name is Quinn. This year I am a year 8 at Gisborne Intermediate. I have moved hubs this year from LH1 to LH8, but staying in base mill. As you will probably find from looking at last years posts, I love listening to music, my favourite singer is Ariana Grande. Her new album, "thank u next" is great you should listen to it. My friends are currently at war right now it is really fun (not anymore as of June). What I did on the summer holidays was like literally nothing, because at home I’m a very boring person.
